Yes I’m calling it annoying. Don’t you just hate it that the flower is out of focus? And I did it on purpose – gotta try to break the rules sometimes!

Something incredible happened today! It rained!

I was really impressed with the dahlias last year so I planted some this year as well. They are late bloomers so the first flower opened today!

I thought the white waterlily buds by the jetty would be in bloom now, but I found them all closed. In fact, all around the lake, all white waterlilies were closed. Very strange. So I did some research and found that white waterlilies close themselves at 5pm, not sure about the accuracy but apparently Carl von…
